Upon interrogation, the suspect confirmed that, the substance found on him is cocaine which he received from a dealer in Cape Coast to serve as a retailer in Assin Fosu.

He added that he ventured into the drug business because there was no job for him to do after searching.

He said "My father is dead while my mother has no job to cater for me and that is the only option I have now."

The suspect confessed that each of the parcels goes for GH10.
